photo in need of a caption

ok, i give in. so many have asked for the return of the old “photo in need of a caption” contests from my old blog, that i’ll play along. but you must realize, i no longer have the power or wherewithal to grant free books to the winner! so with that incentive gone, we may see a dramatic decrease in playas. but we’ll see.

the rules, in case you forgot:
– add a caption as a comment.
– it can be a “title” for the photo, or a “comment” made my someone or something in the photo. either way is fair game.
– if you look back at past winners, you will certainly notice that i have a penchant for the uniquely skewed, rather than the obvious.
– the winner is selected by a purely subjective and biased committee of one: me.
– the prize for winning, in the new whyismarko photo in need of a caption contests is… a hearty congratulations! (maybe if some publisher wants to start spiffing me with sample copies of books like they do for jon acuff, i can start offering books as prizes again).

with that, i give you this beauty. have at it. i’ll likely close the contest in a few days — but i promise nothing.

As he looked down at the drowning students, he remembered the midweek sketch when they demonstrated how it’s much easier to pull someone down to their level than up to yours, and began considering his options…
